Version 0.1.84 Release

Hello again everyone! ^^

I didn't manage to achieve all of my goals this week, and I feel particularly guilty about not getting the basic slavery mechanics into the game. I also forgot to make a mid-week progress report, so I'm really sorry about that as well. To try and make it up to you, I'll work on getting paizuri (breast fucking) added to the game over the weekend, and I'll (hopefully) release a hotfix with that in it by Monday.

Anyway, in this version, I've managed to add forced transformations, a better UI for Kate's shop (which took far longer than I anticipated, and still has a couple of minor formatting bugs), and did some behind-the-scenes work on improving the engine. I'm planning on focusing solely on slavery content and bug fixing next week, so there will (finally) be slavery added into the game for the next version!

(Removed Google Drive link due to lack of storage space. If you'd like a copy of this version, and the Mega link isn't working, please contact me! :3)

This is still an early alpha, and will most likely contain bugs and half-finished content!

Version 0.1.83.5 patch notes:

Gameplay:

Reverted penis/vagina loss when shrinking past minimum size/capacity respectively. You now remove a penis or vagina by adding the 'remove' effect to a potion.

Ralph now stocks squirrel-morph consumables.

Sex:

Converted the following actions into the new cowgirl position for both sub and dom positions: Starting kiss, penetrating anus, penetrating vagina.

Clothing:

Temporarily added: Special clothing to Nyan's store, allowing you to buy the rainbow, Maid, and Milk Maid clothing. (I'm going to change this in the future!)

Added: 'Milk Maid' Set, requires Milk Maid's Dress and Kerchief to be worn. (I'll change the set's effects to increase lactation when I convert the attributes over to the new system.)

Added: Milk Maid's Dress (Feminine, Torso slot). (Created by Blue999)

Added: Kerchief (Unisex, head slot).

Added: Nursing bra (Feminine, Chest slot). (Created by Blue999)

Added: Crotchless thong (Feminine, groin slot).

Added: Keyhole sweater (Feminine, torso slot).

Added: Jeans (Unisex, leg slot).

Other:

Testicle-related actions are now correctly disabled if they are internal.

Added correct descriptions for multiple tails in the character view screen.

Bugs:

Fixed some typos.

Fixed some incorrect gender pronouns.

Fixed some minor UI issues in Kate's shop.

Version 0.1.84 patch notes:

Engine:

Moved ClothingTypes, ItemTypes, and WeaponTypes from Enum values over to static classes.

Added support for different genital arrangements (normal, cloaca, etc.).

Gameplay:

Changed: Encyclopedia entries for clothing, items, weapons, and races are now stored in the properties file, so discoveries are carried over between characters.

Added: Forced transformations by random NPCs after combat loss. (You'll need to turn this on in the content preferences first.) (Also, it's only working for the alleyway attackers and harpies in the Nests at the moment.)

Transformation fetish now increases the amount of forced transformations applied after combat defeat from 1 to 3.

Bummed as well that both slavery and incest aren't really fleshed out at all yet. Still glad for a new release don't get me wrong but the 22nd release being a bugfix patch is kinda irking me especially since slavery/incest has been in the works for a while.

The main issue is both of those systems will have a lot of moving parts and things to track which means there is a lot that can go wrong. Its also because even with the contributors there is only really one person doing everything and making sure that things aren't broken. I have no doubt that it'll get done considering the quality of work that tends to come out but the primary issue has been overzealous goals which get peoples hopes up before they can realistically be accomplished.

I will be working on getting slavery into the game for this next version as well. I'm going to be focusing on slavery, incest, bugfixing, and polish for this next release. With just those four goals, I'm extremely confident that I'll be able to achieve all of them.

I really am sorry that slavery didn't make it in for this version. The second Anon is right; my goals are still overzealous. I'm going to set out just one major goal and a couple of minor goals each week from now on.

Hey, there's no need to be so hard on yourself, I know both of those systems must take a lot of time and effort to implement. I can wait for it no problem, I'm just looking forward to it! That just speaks of the good quality of the game so far. Keep it up!

One thing I noticed is that when you choose the slut option for secondary attributes (which is only available for completely female characters) you are given a bunch of scenarios of how you lost each type of virginity to some guy, even if your character is gynephilic (likes girls). I think a two more options of text could be added, one where things like throat virginity was taken by a woman with a strap-on for gynephilic women, and maybe a random combination of the text for gynephilic and androphilic (likes guys) text for someone who is ambiphilic (likes both).

I'll add the ability to define that yourself when I make the final version of the character creator. At the moment, all of those backgrounds are just placeholders, and I plan on fleshing them out massively when I next work on the character creation. ^^

I don't know if it is possible but maybe adding a wardrobe or dresser to the characters room that could hold all the stuff you don't want to just drop in a random room on the floor would be nice. Thanks for all your hard work, this game is awesome.

The way you store items by dropping them on the floor is just a temporary solution until I can add something better. I'll definitely do as you suggest, and add a few wardrobes and dressers to your room in which to store items and clothing. ^^

Thank you for your kind words, and I'm happy to hear that you like the game! ^^

Could be something you buy as an upgrade to the house since you can very easily run into a lack of money sinks in the game. Having said that, it's probably a good thing Lilaya isn't a total Scrooge McDuck by charging rent, am I right?

Hmm. Having the game lock up on me when submitting to a female, ambiphilic wolf-girl that wants me to be tfed into a futa wolfgirl. Happens at around 20~24 transformations, with tf fetish active. Will see if I can't figure out some more details, unless you already find out why when I get around to it... (Clicked submit, then confirm, then continue does nada....if I try clicking other menus, main screen shows her getting exp/take money for every time I clicked continue)

Mm, after some more testing it really seems like it consistently locks up the game once the npc reaches their tf target and has no changes left to do. Needs a check to prevent that lock when tf is done.

I'm not sure if there's a technical term you have for it, but "green tier" female lingerie from Nyan does not appear in my game, or if it does it is very rare. I have a screenshot below as an example.

http://puu.sh/xv8Hm/219dd44d1e.jpg

I think this is because there are so many other clothing options available that it pushes the "green tier" stuff out of the way, and there's no page 2 or anything so it's just gone. Not really a big deal, there's other stuff you can fill those slots with, but just something to note moving forward.

Besides that, nice work this week, and I'm looking forward to next week! Can't wait for paizuri, thigh sex, and hotdogging! ^^

There also seems to be a problem with multiple stacks of the same item. I have two stacks of dye-brushes, but the second stack cannot be interacted with whatsoever. I had to sell the first stack to be able to interact with the second stack.

Although, having only one stack of dye-brushes still doesn't seem to fix the dyeing problem.

OOOoooooorrrrr it may be because save compatability still needs some more work to actually function properly without making your game into an eldritch code-horror (disclaimer: a little exaggeration, however likeliness of game glitching/breaking somehow by loading old saves when there is no compatability *is* high, even if it seemingly works at first glance).

Innoxia didn't get it to work for this update, so it still needs to be worked on some more before you can just load your save into new versions.

I, for one found one source of slowdowns: It seems every time there is a stack of same items (say, fifty bottles of cat essence in shop) you create a separate object for each item individually. You can observe lag by comparing time of buying a single item, vs time to buy a large stack.

Didn't look in the code so i dont know what current implementation is, but having a stack of items abstracted as ItemStack {ItemType type;int itemCount;}

Will be orders of magintude faster than having an ArrayList of item objects (or similar).

Got a suggestion, the tf fetish on NPC's should probably be checked before gender orientation after battle, since their goal would probably be to tf you into their ideal partner anyway. They could still be disinterested in funtimes until gender has been properly shifted too. (should be relatively easy to implement?)

Sorry if your seeing this again (As I don't know if my post went through)

Hey I've ran into a bit of a problem. I replaced my version 0.1.83 with the 84 release and now for some reason I cannot load my character. In addition, After I try and it fails the game locks up and I can no longer navigate or press anything. I also cannot import the character

I have seen similar things when I was playing. Anytime you are pregnant or at risk of being pregnant, the game won't allow any vagina transformations.It sounds like the NPC was trying to transform your vagina and since you were already under the effect of 'Risk of Pregnancy', the transformation failed. They then tried again and again and failed all three times.

May I ask why the penis/vagina loss reverted? I feel like its useful when you are crafting the potion, but if someone tf's you then you get a vagina or lose your penis immediately which is really annoying. I'd rather see a penis shrinking through multiple TF's until it is completely gone instead of with just one loss to an npc.

I'm not sure what the reason was for the change but it is affecting the TF content. If there was a demand for the change then I would suggest having both options available.

I reverted it so that you could stack reductions to penis size and vagina capacity onto potions without having to worry about them making the target lose those parts.

As to the NPCs removing your penis/vagina in one potion, I'm going to change that for the next release. I'll do as you suggest and make it so that they shrink your cock/reduce your vagina's capacity incrementally, before finally removing it. ^^

A suggestion: Forced transformation should override NPC sexual preferences. Without forced tf, it makes sense a hetero guy would just rob you. With it on however, they should tf you to their preferred gender.

Neverminder someone ninja'd me.I'll add a bug report: Combat seems to hand/get stuck in aloop when NPC has already changed you a bunch(defeat button goes nowhere). As if they dont know what to do anymore.

With transformation fetish enabled and non-consensual sex disabled, it looks like that upon losing a fight, the game refuses to load the defeated scene, and just gets stuck in the fighting screen. I suspect this happens when you already fit your partner's ideal appearance, or at least when you're close to.

I know your hands are pretty full at them moment so I guess this is a comment for future consideration but there's a disconnect between the 'Cum Stud' fetish being for unloading just anywhere, while the 'Cum Addict' fetish focuses on oral ingestion only. Would you consider adding a 'Creampie' fetish, or otherwise adding creampie focused taunts to the 'Cum Addict' tease? Also, I was wondering if you have any plans to add the ability to release on a persons face/body/wherever instead of just on the ground when not inserted in an orifice?

Just a question for the dev for a potential far into the future release feature, but has prostitution related content ever been considered for the game?

Maybe some kind of Brothel building or even just selling yourself in alleyways/encountering prostitute characters in alleyways? It could be a fetish perhaps or maybe tied into masochist or slavery? Making passive income by assigning your slave girls to sexual services could be nice too.

Not sure why but I find the idea very arousing. Related to degradation perhaps? I dunno, not gonna psychoanalyze myself in a porn game website comments section.

All I know is that you can do it in similar games like TiTs or Girl Life, all very good games and it seems to be a pretty common fetish. It would be nice to see it in this game as well since it basically synthesizes great elements from other games into a fantastic all in one sort of deal.

My current plans are pretty much exactly how you've described them, being:1. Encounter prostitutes in alleyways.2. Sell your body to random NPCs in alleyways.3. Assign slaves to selling themselves in the streets, then later I'll add a brothel for you to buy, and then assign your slaves to there.

All of this might take a few more versions to get into the game, but I'll try my best to get it done as soon as I can! ^^

Just a quick question, not for next release, but for future plans in general. Is there any plans to add the ability to give fetishes to NPCs, whether it be via potion, training as a slave, or otherwise? I.E. Train a newly genderbent slave to have preg fetish, or force random alley NPC #465 to drink a potion that makes them a Submissive, or some other method.

Going into his apartment and consequently into Felicity's room doesn't progress the quest either. It just gives me the same text it always does. And it doesn't matter what time it is when I enter the apartment either.

Yet another anon, you should be getting a prompt after entering Arthur's Apartments to visit Brax in order to advance the plotline after finding a note on the door and talking to Felicity. Currently, their is no content at all with Felicity besides this initial conversation, and visiting her again does not do anything. If you're not getting that prompt to go see Brax then yes, this is an actual bug though, but your main questline should update to have a quest titled "The Search for Arthur; The Wolf's Den" and tell you were you're supposed to go next.

As the last Anon in this comments thread says, you should be able to advance the quest past the initial stage of visiting Arthur's apartment. Your quest will update to "The Search for Arthur; The Wolf's Den".

I'm unsure if you mean this part, or the part later on (after Alexa's content). Nevertheless, I'll look into this and see if there's a bug somewhere. ^^

I think it's after Alexa's Content, because it tells you to go back to the apartment/demon home but you can't do anything there (unless I've missed something, I didn't even come across Felicity, but I do have Scarellet as a slave now and since slavery isn't in yet, guess I can't visit her.)

But this is a different anon, because demon home apparently ='s arthur's apartment.

Lil bit of a bug. With forced tf content on and with the tf fetish, I was testing it out a little, and after a while, I submitted again, and I couldn't progress. Clicking the continue button didn't do anything. I could open my phone, my inventory, everything, except for progress the scene. Just thought you should know about this.

If it helps any, I was submitting to a herm dog-girl and she was transforming me to a dickgirl squirrel-girl from female human.

Hello, I would like to start by saying that I really enjoy this game. I work as a programmer myself and I know how complicated and convoluted some of the mechanics regarding slavery must be, so much so that you would probably dread adding or changing something that is already tangled up in other game mechanics and functions. However I would like to request for some sort of method that would allow us to modify existing enchantments in the equipment, that way we would have to keep scavenging trying to find items with the particular enchantment that we want, or keep checking the shop every day. Also I would be thankful for a function that could allow us to copy the effects of an already created potion, some sort of reload effects but in case we don't have the materials or essences required at the moment, that way we could replicate a potion without needing to add every single element one by one. In this regard I think I have an idea that could help you, if you could export th potion effects as a text format or an xml, you should be able to load them in game, sort of like the import and export character but in simpler copy the text output and paste it in a textbox.Thank you for your attention and I hope I was of help to you.

Hello, I'm happy to hear that you like the game, and thank you for your feedback! ^^

I'll definitely be adding in custom clothing enchantments, but that will be a couple of versions from now (maybe 0.1.86 or 87). I'd like to get the stats and combat rework done before this, so then I don't have to refactor all the old enchantment types into a new system.

I'll also add a way to save potions (possibly through an XML or JSON save, so that they're available cross-character). I'll try and get this done for the next version. ^^

Hey, I just loaded your most recent git and in Nyan's clothing shop when you go into the female clothing tab it is completely empty and the female underwear and lingerie tab are completely inaccessible. Probably the two are related as I had also loaded the git before that and everything worked just fine, so it was definitely something in your latest git.

Is the bovine content going to allow you to have an udder? I have tried several of the transformations and I haven't seen it yet. It just seems like that is something that would obviously go with a cow-girl.
